The 2019 Tanglewood schedule is out.
Mark Volpe is President and CEO of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, the organization that owns Tanglewood and has been performing on its sprawling compound in Lenox, Massachusetts since 1936.
He says in addition to favorites like Yo-Yo Ma, Joshua Bell, and John Williams, the summer will also see a performance of “Die Walküre, the Wagner — one of the four Ring Cycle operas with a phenomenal cast, a cast anyone would be jealous of, and then a Verdi requiem.”
2019 will also mark the opening of the Tanglewood Learning Institute as well as the center’s first full-season building complex.
